Our Lady of the Green Scapular

Blangy-Versailles, France (1840)

Nine years after St. Catherine Laboure, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to Sister Justina Bisqueyburu in the same convent, holding the Immaculate Heart illuminated in her hands and gave her the Green Scapular.

Scapulars began to be manufactured and distributed by the Sisters in Paris, then across France when formal approval was received from Pope Pius IX in 1870.
